In specific regards to performance art, residuals are paid in perpetuity for subsequent broadcasts or showings of your work. If your work does not have a residual, the residual is considered to be the work of a theatre company and not a live performances.
Term for residual means to pay for later shows, screenings etc of work. A residual is a commission made to the creators of performance art for the new work of art. A typical use is in the payment of residuals for television reruns. In America, the word is commonly used in the plural form. Wikipedia :

Asked on March 26, 2021 in Grammar.
With song lyrics, as with advertising slogans, being ungrammatical is often an advantage. It makes the lyrics more memorable and less formal, and thus more intimate and relatable. Ungrammatical lyrics sound more like natural speech, and can have a more “fresh” feeling.
In addition, the native dialect of quite a lot of English-language popular music (blues, rock, jazz, hip-hop, soul and R&B) is black American vernacular English, which uses non-standard grammatical forms. What is the lyric used in your quote?
Justin Bieber’s music is nominally R&B, and many of his mentors were black, factors which may have contributed to his frequent use of black American vernacular in his songs.
